CGiii Comment
Overwrought, stylised and brutal.
Let down by some grim direction and stilted acting.
The power that it has...shatters and upholds stereotypes - which is rather clever.
It could have been stunning - but, displays all the cowardice when adapting a disturbing novel.
Powerful stuff nonetheless.
Trailer...
The(ir) Blurb...
Set in Brooklyn during the 1950s against a backdrop of union corruption and violence. A prostitute falls in love with one of her customers. Also a disturbed man discovers that he is homosexual.
